   Sergey Senozhatsky improves zram's post-processing selection
   algorithm. This leads to improved memory savings.

 - Wei Yang has gone to town on the mapletree code, contributing several
   series which clean up the implementation:
	- "refine mas_mab_cp()"
	- "Reduce the space to be cleared for maple_big_node"
	- "maple_tree: simplify mas_push_node()"
	- "Following cleanup after introduce mas_wr_store_type()"

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
 "The most significant set of changes is the per netns RTNL. The new
  behavior is disabled by default, regression risk should be contained.

  Notably the new config knob PTP_1588_CLOCK_VMCLOCK will inherit its
  default value from PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM, as the first is intended to be
  a more reliable replacement for the latter.

  Core:

   - Started a very large, in-progress, effort to make the RTNL lock
     scope per network-namespace, thus reducing the lock contention
     significantly in the containerized use-case, comprising:
       - RCU-ified some relevant slices of the FIB control path
       - introduce basic per netns locking helpers
       - namespacified the IPv4 address hash table
       - remove rtnl_register{,_module}() in favour of
         rtnl_register_many()
       - refactor rtnl_{new,del,set}link() moving as much validation as
         possible out of RTNL lock
       - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
       - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
       - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
     the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
     CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.

   - Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
     polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.

   - Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
     ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
     handling consistent and reliable.

   - Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
     better introspection in case of packets drop.

   - Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.

   - Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.

   - Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
     and timestamps

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
     size.

   - Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
     API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
     implementation.

  Netfilter:

   - Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption

   - Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.

   - Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
     option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.

   - Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
     improvements.

  BPF:

   - Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
     this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.

   - Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
     combination with BPF cpumap.

   - Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
     add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.

   - Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb-&gt;{mark,priority}
     scrubbing to its BPF program.

   - Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
     programs.

  Protocols:

   - Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
     significantly connected sockets lookup.

   - Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
     close, the socket lock contention.

   - Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
     lookups.

   - Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
     risks on loosing them.

   - Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
     device neigh lists.

  Driver API:

   - Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
     shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.

   - Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
     configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
     Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
     nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.

   - Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.

   - Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.

   - Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
     offload.

   - Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
     device-specific entries.

   - Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.

   - Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.

  Tests and tooling:

   - forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
     phase

  Drivers:

   - Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
     Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
     IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
     introspection.

      - nVidia/Mellanox:
         - mlx5:

         possible out of RTNL lock
       - convert all phonet doit() and dumpit() handlers to RCU
       - convert IPv4 addresses manipulation to per-netns RTNL
       - convert virtual interface creation to per-netns RTNL
     the per-netns lock infrastructure is guarded by the
     CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL knob, disabled by default ad interim.

   - Introduce NAPI suspension, to efficiently switching between busy
     polling (NAPI processing suspended) and normal processing.

   - Migrate the IPv4 routing input, output and control path from direct
     ToS usage to DSCP macros. This is a work in progress to make ECN
     handling consistent and reliable.

   - Add drop reasons support to the IPv4 rotue input path, allowing
     better introspection in case of packets drop.

   - Make FIB seqnum lockless, dropping RTNL protection for read access.

   - Make inet{,v6} addresses hashing less predicable.

   - Allow providing timestamp OPT_ID via cmsg, to correlate TX packets
     and timestamps

  Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:

   - Add small file operations for debugfs, to reduce the struct ops
     size.

   - Refactoring and optimization for the implementation of page_frag
     API, This is a preparatory work to consolidate the page_frag
     implementation.

  Netfilter:

   - Optimize set element transactions to reduce memory consumption

   - Extended netlink error reporting for attribute parser failure.

   - Make legacy xtables configs user selectable, giving users the
     option to configure iptables without enabling any other config.

   - Address a lot of false-positive RCU issues, pointed by recent CI
     improvements.

  BPF:

   - Put xsk sockets on a struct diet and add various cleanups. Overall,
     this helps to bump performance by 12% for some workloads.

   - Extend BPF selftests to increase coverage of XDP features in
     combination with BPF cpumap.

   - Optimize and homogenize bpf_csum_diff helper for all archs and also
     add a batch of new BPF selftests for it.

   - Extend netkit with an option to delegate skb-&gt;{mark,priority}
     scrubbing to its BPF program.

   - Make the bpf_get_netns_cookie() helper available also to tc(x) BPF
     programs.

  Protocols:

   - Introduces 4-tuple hash for connected udp sockets, speeding-up
     significantly connected sockets lookup.

   - Add a fastpath for some TCP timers that usually expires after
     close, the socket lock contention.

   - Add inbound and outbound xfrm state caches to speed up state
     lookups.

   - Avoid sending MPTCP advertisements on stale subflows, reducing
     risks on loosing them.

   - Make neighbours table flushing more scalable, maintaining per
     device neigh lists.

  Driver API:

   - Introduce a unified interface to configure transmission H/W
     shaping, and expose it to user-space via generic-netlink.

   - Add support for per-NAPI config via netlink. This makes napi
     configuration persistent across queues removal and re-creation.
     Requires driver updates, currently supported drivers are:
     nVidia/Mellanox mlx4 and mlx5, Broadcom brcm and Intel ice.

   - Add ethtool support for writing SFP / PHY firmware blocks.

   - Track RSS context allocation from ethtool core.

   - Implement support for mirroring to DSA CPU port, via TC mirror
     offload.

   - Consolidate FDB updates notification, to avoid duplicates on
     device-specific entries.

   - Expose DPLL clock quality level to the user-space.

   - Support master-slave PHY config via device tree.

  Tests and tooling:

   - forwarding: introduce deferred commands, to simplify the cleanup
     phase

  Drivers:

   - Updated several drivers - Amazon vNic, Google vNic, Microsoft vNic,
     Intel e1000e and Broadcom Tigon3 - to use netdev-genl to link the
     IRQs and queues to NAPI IDs, allowing busy polling and better
     introspection.

<title>mm: fix NULL pointer dereference in alloc_pages_bulk_noprof</title>

<content type='text'>
We triggered a NULL pointer dereference for ac.preferred_zoneref-&gt;zone in
alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() when the task is migrated between cpusets.

When cpuset is enabled, in prepare_alloc_pages(), ac-&gt;nodemask may be
&amp;current-&gt;mems_allowed.  when first_zones_zonelist() is called to find
preferred_zoneref, the ac-&gt;nodemask may be modified concurrently if the
task is migrated between different cpusets.  Assuming we have 2 NUMA Node,
when traversing Node1 in ac-&gt;zonelist, the nodemask is 2, and when
traversing Node2 in ac-&gt;zonelist, the nodemask is 1.  As a result, the
ac-&gt;preferred_zoneref points to NULL zone.

In alloc_pages_bulk_noprof(), for_each_zone_zonelist_nodemask() finds a
allowable zone and calls zonelist_node_idx(ac.preferred_zoneref), leading
to NULL pointer dereference.

__alloc_pages_noprof() fixes this issue by checking NULL pointer in commit
ea57485af8f4 ("mm, page_alloc: fix check for NULL preferred_zone") and
commit df76cee6bbeb ("mm, page_alloc: remove redundant checks from alloc
fastpath").

To fix it, check NULL pointer for preferred_zoneref-&gt;zone.

The problem was originally introduced by commit b109b87050df ("mm/munlock:
replace clear_page_mlock() by final clearance"): it was focused on
handling pagecache and anonymous memory and wasn't suitable for lower
level get_page()/free_page() API's used for example by KVM, as with this
reproducer.

Fix it by moving the mlocked flag clearance down to free_page_prepare().

The bug itself if fairly old and harmless (aside from generating these
warnings), aside from a small memory leak - "bad" pages are stopped from
being allocated again.

Inspired by [1], move the page fragment allocator from page_alloc
into its own c file and header file, as we are about to make more
change for it to replace another page_frag implementation in
sock.c

As this patchset is going to replace 'struct page_frag' with
'struct page_frag_cache' in sched.h, including page_frag_cache.h
in sched.h has a compiler error caused by interdependence between
mm_types.h and mm.h for asm-offsets.c, see [2]. So avoid the compiler
error by moving 'struct page_frag_cache' to mm_types_task.h as
suggested by Alexander, see [3].

<title>mm/page_alloc: keep track of free highatomic</title>

<id>c928807f6f6b6d595a7e199591ae297c81de3aeb</id>
<content type='text'>
OOM kills due to vastly overestimated free highatomic reserves were
observed:

  ... invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x100cca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE), order=0 ...
  Node 0 Normal free:1482936kB boost:0kB min:410416kB low:739404kB high:1068392kB reserved_highatomic:1073152KB ...
  Node 0 Normal: 1292*4kB (ME) 1920*8kB (E) 383*16kB (UE) 220*32kB (ME) 340*64kB (E) 2155*128kB (UE) 3243*256kB (UE) 615*512kB (U) 1*1024kB (M) 0*2048kB 0*4096kB = 1477408kB

The second line above shows that the OOM kill was due to the following
condition:

  free (1482936kB) - reserved_highatomic (1073152kB) = 409784KB &lt; min (410416kB)

And the third line shows there were no free pages in any
MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC pageblocks, which otherwise would show up as type 'H'. 
Therefore __zone_watermark_unusable_free() underestimated the usable free
memory by over 1GB, which resulted in the unnecessary OOM kill above.

The comments in __zone_watermark_unusable_free() warns about the potential
risk, i.e.,

  If the caller does not have rights to reserves below the min
  watermark then subtract the high-atomic reserves. This will
  over-estimate the size of the atomic reserve but it avoids a search.

However, it is possible to keep track of free pages in reserved highatomic
pageblocks with a new per-zone counter nr_free_highatomic protected by the
zone lock, to avoid a search when calculating the usable free memory.  And
the cost would be minimal, i.e., simple arithmetics in the highatomic
alloc/free/move paths.

Note that since nr_free_highatomic can be relatively small, using a
per-cpu counter might cause too much drift and defeat its purpose, in
addition to the extra memory overhead.

condition:

  free (1482936kB) - reserved_highatomic (1073152kB) = 409784KB &lt; min (410416kB)

And the third line shows there were no free pages in any
MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC pageblocks, which otherwise would show up as type 'H'. 
Therefore __zone_watermark_unusable_free() underestimated the usable free
memory by over 1GB, which resulted in the unnecessary OOM kill above.

The comments in __zone_watermark_unusable_free() warns about the potential
risk, i.e.,

  If the caller does not have rights to reserves below the min
  watermark then subtract the high-atomic reserves. This will
  over-estimate the size of the atomic reserve but it avoids a search.

However, it is possible to keep track of free pages in reserved highatomic
pageblocks with a new per-zone counter nr_free_highatomic protected by the
zone lock, to avoid a search when calculating the usable free memory.  And
the cost would be minimal, i.e., simple arithmetics in the highatomic
alloc/free/move paths.

Note that since nr_free_highatomic can be relatively small, using a
per-cpu counter might cause too much drift and defeat its purpose, in
addition to the extra memory overhead.

<title>mm/thp: fix deferred split unqueue naming and locking</title>

<content type='text'>
Recent changes are putting more pressure on THP deferred split queues:
under load revealing long-standing races, causing list_del corruptions,
"Bad page state"s and worse (I keep BUGs in both of those, so usually
don't get to see how badly they end up without).  The relevant recent
changes being 6.8's mTHP, 6.10's mTHP swapout, and 6.12's mTHP swapin,
improved swap allocation, and underused THP splitting.

Before fixing locking: rename misleading folio_undo_large_rmappable(),
which does not undo large_rmappable, to folio_unqueue_deferred_split(),
which is what it does.  But that and its out-of-line __callee are mm
internals of very limited usability: add comment and WARN_ON_ONCEs to
check usage; and return a bool to say if a deferred split was unqueued,
which can then be used in WARN_ON_ONCEs around safety checks (sparing
callers the arcane conditionals in __folio_unqueue_deferred_split()).

Just omit the folio_unqueue_deferred_split() from free_unref_folios(), all
of whose callers now call it beforehand (and if any forget then bad_page()
will tell) - except for its caller put_pages_list(), which itself no
longer has any callers (and will be deleted separately).

Swapout: mem_cgroup_swapout() has been resetting folio-&gt;memcg_data 0
without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from deferred split list;
which is unfortunate, since the split_queue_lock depends on the memcg
(when memcg is enabled); so swapout has been unqueueing such THPs later,
when freeing the folio, using the pgdat's lock instead: potentially
corrupting the memcg's list.  __remove_mapping() has frozen refcount to 0
here, so no problem with calling folio_unqueue_deferred_split() before
resetting memcg_data.

That goes back to 5.4 commit 87eaceb3faa5 ("mm: thp: make deferred split
shrinker memcg aware"): which included a check on swapcache before adding
to deferred queue, but no check on deferred queue before adding THP to
swapcache.  That worked fine with the usual sequence of events in reclaim
(though there were a couple of rare ways in which a THP on deferred queue
could have been swapped out), but 6.12 commit dafff3f4c850 ("mm: split
underused THPs") avoids splitting underused THPs in reclaim, which makes
swapcache THPs on deferred queue commonplace.

Keep the check on swapcache before adding to deferred queue?  Yes: it is
no longer essential, but preserves the existing behaviour, and is likely
to be a worthwhile optimization (vmstat showed much more traffic on the
queue under swapping load if the check was removed); update its comment.

Memcg-v1 move (deprecated): mem_cgroup_move_account() has been changing
folio-&gt;memcg_data without checking and unqueueing a THP folio from the
deferred list, sometimes corrupting "from" memcg's list, like swapout. 
Refcount is non-zero here, so folio_unqueue_deferred_split() can only be
used in a WARN_ON_ONCE to validate the fix, which must be done earlier:
mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range() first try to split the THP (splitting
of course unqueues), or skip it if that fails.  Not ideal, but moving
charge has been requested, and khugepaged should repair the THP later:
nobody wants new custom unqueueing code just for this deprecated case.

The 87eaceb3faa5 commit did have the code to move from one deferred list
to another (but was not conscious of its unsafety while refcount non-0);
but that was removed by 5.6 commit fac0516b5534 ("mm: thp: don't need care
deferred split queue in memcg charge move path"), which argued that the
existence of a PMD mapping guarantees that the THP cannot be on a deferred
list.  As above, false in rare cases, and now commonly false.

Backport to 6.11 should be straightforward.  Earlier backports must take
care that other _deferred_list fixes and dependencies are included.  There
is not a strong case for backports, but they can fix cornercases.
